The bride wore a gown of white taffeta trimmed with silver lace, and carried a bouquet of white and pink carnations. Her maid was attired in pink brocaded crepe and carried pink and white sweet peas. Following the ceremony n re eeption was held at the home of the bride's parents, attended by the rela¬ tives of Mr. and Mrs. Eichholz. The house was prettily decorated in white and pink.

It is impossible to state the exact cause of tha explosion as these two men were alone in the room at the time, and Thcms is dead, evidently being killed by the explosion as his body was found after the fire was out in the comer of the building where the first explosion took place, and Lubash is at St. Mary's Hospital, Jamaica, not expected to live. Not¬ withstanding his sufferings he ran up¬ stairs where several other men were working and warned them of their danger, told them to jump for their lives. His heroic action in looking after his fellow-workers prevented a much gn^eater death list as they would undoubtedly have been trapped if they had attempted to escape by the stairs. Several of the men working in the building were not able to get out in time as it was and four of them were badly bumed, while others were pain¬ fully bumed or cut by falling glass.

MYRTLE WRIGHT PECKETT
One of the most pathetic cases of family bereavement through the influ¬ enza came last week when Mrs. Myr¬ tle Wright Peckett of East Merrick Road died of pneumonia after an ill¬ ness of nine days. It is peculiarly sad because this young mother leaves behind her four small chnldren,, one a babe of only seven weeks. Mrs. Peck¬ ett was only 23 years And six months if age. All her life excepting three yean after her marriage has been spent in Freeport. Mr. Peckett ia well known in the vilttge as one of the employees of the Aflams Express Company. His sister/living in Brook¬ lyn will assume the care of the moth¬ erless little ones.

No Opposition to Present
Board of VilUge Trustees
We have not yet heard of any objec¬ tion to the present Board of Village Trustees being re-elected. It is un¬ derstood that President Anderson and IVustes Maxson and Williams, whose terms expire, will accept the of¬ fices again. They made good, and should be retumed. The year, unde: war conditions has been a difllcult one, and the Board has had the task of keeping expenses down and at the many tasks rquiring time and patience same time treating the village ei>CpIoy- ees fairly in the matter of wages. I The president in particular has had many tasks requiring time and patipnce and he has made good, clearing up dis- reput^le places in the village, cut¬ ting down on expenditures and appro¬ priations and giving the taxpayers and citizens an efficient administra¬ tion. The time is coming, in fact it came several years since, when we have no right to ask a man of the ability of President Anderson (and we don't want any other kind of me.i in the office with its important tasks) to take this work, attend to the tasks which he"^muat, and furnish his own automobile, an absolute necessity if the work of the oflice is to be handled properly. Action should be taken at once to properly protect the holder of this office at least to a sum sufficient to cover expenses.
"there will be a lively contest for the office of Police Justice. Judge Flint, whose term expires, will be nominated again, and will have for his opponent Albin N. Johnson, at present attomey for the Village Boarc. of Tmslees. The office pays $750 a year.

Order Eastern Star (Special Contribution)
On Friday evening, February 21, a masquerade was given by the mem¬ bers of the Chapter and friends at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Penny, 60 New York Avenue. The costumes were both fancy and comic, and as they un¬ masked at 11 o'clock we found our guesses had been misplaced in regard to many. There was a very large at¬ tendance for a very stormy night. Re¬ freshments were served and at a late hour all voted a most enjoyable time.
The Social Club of the Eastern Star met with Mrs. John Southard, 37 No. Bergen Place, last Thursday. There was a large attendance. Music, sew¬ ing and knitting were the pastimes cf the afternoon.
Keep in mind our card party (mili¬ tary 500) March 8, at 8:30 p. m. in our rooms in Mechanics Hall. Tick¬ ets are 25 cents. Come and bring your friends. Next meeting will be March 8 at 7:00 p. m.
Masons
Five candidates received the Third Degree in Spartan Lodge, Free and Accepted Masons, at the regular meet¬ ing Tuesday evening. It rained hard, but there was a large attendance, in eluding delegations from Babylon, Morton and Suffolk Lodges. The His torical Lecture of the degree was giv¬ en by Rt. Wor. Frank T. Hawkins of Morton.
Presbyterian
On next Sunday the pastor. Rev. J. Sidney Gould, will conduct the ser¬ vices both motning and evening. In the morning Rev. Finley, who until recently was pastor of the Presbyter¬ ian Church at Hot Springs, North Carolina, and who now is under the Board of Home Missions, will ^peak. He will also attend the Roosevelt Branch and speak to the Sunday School in the afternoon and in the ev¬ ening speak at Rockville Centre.
Sunday evening the pastor will open the series of "World Problems" with a sermon on "Shall We Have Victory With Our Peace?"
Sermons for March
The series that Rev. J. Sidney Gould preached during February on four great Presidents proved so interesting to the congregation that he is an¬ nouncing another series on "Great World Problems." The first of these will be on "Shall We Have Victory With Our Peace?" Whether we win or Germany wins is not to be settled alone by armies. This sermon will be preached on next Sunday night, then will follow the Sunday after "Have We Been Fighting for the Plutocrat?" The charge is made too often to be ignored. It must be sifted. Another Sunday even the warning of a recent writer will be March 16, "Will Europe Come to Hate Us When We Collect Our Debts?"
March 23, "Wheri Can the Church Link Up With Power?" .When the boys come back will they back up the church ?
March 30, "Why Is a Bolsheviki?"
When we see a cult of such magni¬ tude and power we cannot ignore the .query, What is there to it that is right?
There is always excellent music. Last Sunday eveniiig the Prelude on the organ was a thing no music lover would have missed if he had really considered from the announcement what was coming. Sextette from Lu¬ cia and the duet by Misses Van Rets and Spier was rendered with fine feel¬ ing and finish.

No Opposition to Present
Board of VilUge Trustees
We have not yet heard of any objec¬ tion to the present Board of Village Trustees being re-elected. It is un¬ derstood that President Anderson and IVustes Maxson and Williams, whose terms expire, will accept the of¬ fices again. They made good, and should be retumed. The year, unde: war conditions has been a difllcult one, and the Board has had the task of keeping expenses down and at the many tasks rquiring time and patience same time treating the village ei>CpIoy- ees fairly in the matter of wages. I The president in particular has had many tasks requiring time and patipnce and he has made good, clearing up dis- reput^le places in the village, cut¬ ting down on expenditures and appro¬ priations and giving the taxpayers and citizens an efficient administra¬ tion. The time is coming, in fact it came several years since, when we have no right to ask a man of the ability of President Anderson (and we don't want any other kind of me.i in the office with its important tasks) to take this work, attend to the tasks which he"^muat, and furnish his own automobile, an absolute necessity if the work of the oflice is to be handled properly. Action should be taken at once to properly protect the holder of this office at least to a sum sufficient to cover expenses.
"there will be a lively contest for the office of Police Justice. Judge Flint, whose term expires, will be nominated again, and will have for his opponent Albin N. Johnson, at present attomey for the Village Boarc. of Tmslees. The office pays $750 a year.

Mechanics Celebrate Anniversary
The stormy weather Friday night somewhat interfered with the attend¬ ance at the 22nd anniversary of Free- port Council No. 57, Jr. O. U. A. M., but an enjoyable evening was passed with special entertainment and re¬ freshments.

Order Eastern Star (Special Contribution)
On Friday evening, February 21, a masquerade was given by the mem¬ bers of the Chapter and friends at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Penny, 60 New York Avenue. The costumes were both fancy and comic, and as they un¬ masked at 11 o'clock we found our guesses had been misplaced in regard to many. There was a very large at¬ tendance for a very stormy night. Re¬ freshments were served and at a late hour all voted a most enjoyable time.
The Social Club of the Eastern Star met with Mrs. John Southard, 37 No. Bergen Place, last Thursday. There was a large attendance. Music, sew¬ ing and knitting were the pastimes cf the afternoon.
Keep in mind our card party (mili¬ tary 500) March 8, at 8:30 p. m. in our rooms in Mechanics Hall. Tick¬ ets are 25 cents. Come and bring your friends. Next meeting will be March 8 at 7:00 p. m.

It rained hard, but there was a large attendance, in eluding delegations from Babylon, Morton and Suffolk Lodges. The His torical Lecture of the degree was giv¬ en by Rt. Wor. Frank T. Hawkins of Morton.
Presbyterian
On next Sunday the pastor. Rev. J. Sidney Gould, will conduct the ser¬ vices both motning and evening. In the morning Rev. Finley, who until recently was pastor of the Presbyter¬ ian Church at Hot Springs, North Carolina, and who now is under the Board of Home Missions, will ^peak. He will also attend the Roosevelt Branch and speak to the Sunday School in the afternoon and in the ev¬ ening speak at Rockville Centre.
Sunday evening the pastor will open the series of "World Problems" with a sermon on "Shall We Have Victory With Our Peace?"
Sermons for March
The series that Rev. J. Sidney Gould preached during February on four great Presidents proved so interesting to the congregation that he is an¬ nouncing another series on "Great World Problems." The first of these will be on "Shall We Have Victory With Our Peace?" Whether we win or Germany wins is not to be settled alone by armies. This sermon will be preached on next Sunday night, then will follow the Sunday after "Have We Been Fighting for the Plutocrat?" The charge is made too often to be ignored. It must be sifted. Another Sunday even the warning of a recent writer will be March 16, "Will Europe Come to Hate Us When We Collect Our Debts?"
March 23, "Wheri Can the Church Link Up With Power?" .When the boys come back will they back up the church ?
March 30, "Why Is a Bolsheviki?"
When we see a cult of such magni¬ tude and power we cannot ignore the .query, What is there to it that is right?
There is always excellent music. Last Sunday eveniiig the Prelude on the organ was a thing no music lover would have missed if he had really considered from the announcement what was coming. Sextette from Lu¬ cia and the duet by Misses Van Rets and Spier was rendered with fine feel¬ ing and finish.
